Bus-Tech has a zDASD product as you have described.  I am not aware that
StorageTek has such a product.  Based on my web searches and searching
the Oracle (STK) website, I found no listing for zDASD by StorageTek.

     Maybe late in this track, but we have cheap DASD , as we have zDASD

from StorageTech and DS4300 IBM Raid Array behind.
(can emulate ESCON or FICON channels and using the Raid array behind)
Till we don't have serious problems it was cheap, but as we got DASD 
errors in the daily backup jobs, it started to be not so cheap.
After some GTF traces StorageTech has fixed this problem, so it it cheap

again ...
